FIRE BAN INFORMATIONEffectiveTuesday, May 26, 2015 - Thursday, September 3, 2015 (Tentative)Maricopa County's regional parks will initiate the annual fire ban. This includes banning the use of all
campfire, fire pits and charcoal grills; however, it is still acceptable to use gas/propane grills in designated areas such as the ramada areas, semi-developed and developed camping sites, and along the shoreline at Lake Pleasant Regional Park.
If the parks do not receive ample rain during the monsoon season, the Maricopa County Parks and Recreation Department may extend the fire ban to protect the parks resources and ensure visitor safety. To learn more, click here.

Don’t miss an extra-special “Polliwogin’ Storytime” with award winning author, Conrad Storad, as he reads his children’s book, “Rattlesnake Rules”.
This will be a fun, interactive reading, with a craft project afterwards. A short hike will be included, as well. Copies of his books will be available for purchase and he will happily autograph your personal copy.
Be sure to bring a picnic lunch to enjoy, afterwards, as we have a picnic area and playground for your enjoyment.
This special event will be held on Saturday, March 23, 2013, at 10 AM in the Nature Center at Cave Creek Regional Park.
Please be sure to bring a bottle of water and wear a hat and sturdy shoes.
